Are you ready for the pounding dreams?
Ready for your heart to race?
The pace is slow, but the beat is fast
Are you ready for a love that lasts?

Your pulse is knocking on my door -
beating hard to let me in -
are we ready to surrender all
a dizzy, tumbling, passion fall?

Are you ready for my gentle entrance?
The stage is soft, the curtains flowing...
Are you ready to demand your fill?
Abandon fear, not a drop will spill...

Are you ready to take your aching toll -
With your dying heart, your breast, your soul?
The words are reaching through your skin
Come here, relax, they will draw me in...

I smell your strong and sweet perfume -
But are you ready... to consume?
